With all of the tech companies moving to Texas. Texas may go blue in 2024. For sure by 2028

What does go blue even mean?

Op, have you not realized the irony of your post? You are trying to use the fact that many big tech luminaries and companies are fleeing the far-left policies of California - whether it's Oracle or Elon Musk - to prove that the country is turning to the left.

It's all very interesting.

I think the #1 takeaway of 2020 though so far is that people aren't willing to go crazy far left. Look at the House and Senate results. Everyone is assuming, "oh demographics mean this." But the parties adapt and you can only go so far culturally without there being a bit of a pushback.

For the most part, I think people like divided govt - that's why the party that wins the presidency almost always gets destroyed in the midterms.

I think the issue is that state-to-state realignment like CA-TX can dramatically effect the presidential election due to the electoral college.

The country doesn’t have to turn left at all but if you just transport a few million voters from CA to TX then the Democrats would have a massive majority in the EC.

Obviously going by popular vote would make these migrations less important.

You are out to lunch of you think Texas can go blue because of an influx of a few wealth white collar workers. There were people who thought that would happen this year, they were smoking something.

What really happened in Texas is the only blue part of the state - the Hispanic majority southern areas - shifted heavily red toward as they are sick of the Democrats.

The dramatic GOP improvement among minorities is a major reason the results are so suspect. If Biden lost so much ground in the Dem base, who are these hordes of whites who supposedly turned out to vote for him? Half the country is never gonna believe it. Maybe you do, but stick a fork in the electoral process because a 50% trust rating doesn't cut it.

You know it was fraud. Stop playing.

GOP legislatures have moved on. GOP appointed judges have dismissed dozens of cases.

I just want one win in one state and we can talk. Is that too much to ask of you guys?

Let me know!! Or is the GOP deep state too??

Just because it can't be proven does not mean it wasn't fraud. You can't detect fraud when people are mixing in fraudulent naked mail-in ballots with legitimate ones. There is no envelope, no postmark, and no signature. Those ballots are now included in any recount measure.

Because it is too late to prove doesn't mean fraud didn't take place. You know that. Stop playing.

Checkmate libs, yeah?

*Whispers*......Biden did 3% better than Clinton....

TX '20 +6 Trump

TX '16 +9 Trump

TX '12 +16 Romney

As the USA becomes a majority minority country the GOP's margin of error gets smaller and smaller. The only Hispanic group the GOP performs well with is those of Cuban descent in FL because Socialism is a scary word down there being too closely compared to Castro.

AZ was the first domino to fall. By 2028 TX will be blue.

Just trying to understand your argument. It was widespread fraud that cannot be proven, yeah?

So there will, by your own admission, never be evidence of this massive conspiracy. Yet you are sure it happened?

Again, checkmate libs?

Not only am I sure it happened, but you are too. TDS, unfortunately, is such a detrimental disease that libs have chosen to forsake our election process, and country, to get Trump out of office at any cost.

Personally, I don't care either way. I didn't care when Obama won, either. There is no such thing as Biden Derangement Syndrome. Biden being elected doesn't really affect me. I would wager most conservatives don't care if Trump lost fairly.

Really the only thing that I do care about is that I just... wish you would not continue playing. You should just stop.

I see. So no evidence. Unprovable. But you’re sure it happened.

You don’t even care about the election but you are choosing to believe in a massive, unprecedented conspiracy that you have no evidence for.

Very interesting!! Thanks for clearing this up.

Do I think Trump will win? No. Did I give money to his various legal funds? No. Do I think there was a great deal of election fraud in blue counties? Absolutely. Do I think anything will be done about it? No.

What's alarming, however, and quite clear from the last 20 minutes or so, is that it seems like you're entirely incapable of cessation of play. I recommend that you stop playing immediately.

But this would be absolutely typical of the left.

Far-left policies of California?

This sounds like a guy who made up his mind on the events without bothering to read up on the details, all to arrive at a conclusion comfortable with his views.

Musks' "last straw" was Covid-19 restrictions; apparently data-driven health policy is far-left. Other gripes include the high cost of living in Silicon Valley, housing and taxes. The closest to a "far-left" policy I see here is taxes. Otherwise, Silicon Valley & neighbouring areas are expensive asf because local governments have been unwilling to act and have let 'free markets' work.

The biggest motivation for these companies is money; they couldn't care less what policy is in place as long as they can keep their costs down and make money. That's why they're moving to Texas and Nevada and Colorado (and New York, many of them, including Amazon last year) and not to Kentucky or Mississippi or West Virginia.

You sound like a flat earther. You can't be reasoned with. You my friend are simply a gullible idiot.

That's what I was thinking. The thing is that is what happened to AZ. People fleeing CA. I know because we lived there and saw all the CA plates moving into the state. It went blue.

Democrats bring their left leaning policy with them and end up making where ever they go blue. And with the advent of mail in ballots, ballot harvesting, and more importantly, the postal union being Dem, they will manipulate the elections to Dem favor. We have seen evidence of this already in this election, but the courts have decided keeping the facade of free and fair elections is more important than getting to the truth.

I hope we do have a check after Georgia, but I doubt it. Then all Dems have to do is pack the supreme court, and the road to doing away with the constitution is complete. That is what the founding fathers didn't envision, and is the weakness of our system.

And there is no chance in h$ll, that a bunch of rednecks can overthrow the US military (and I'm pretty well a redneck). The military will go along with whatever, IMO. Like it or not we have been on the road to a one world order for awhile now, Trump got in the way of it, and paid the price. We sold our soul to China for cheap goods, and it's time to pay the devil.
